Skyscraper in London.
In the London borough of Kensington, on Exhibition Road – between Cromwell Road and Imperial College Road – there is a void that serves visitors to the Victoria Albert Museum.
A place for a tower that, almost on its tiptoes is lodged in the mineral city for which it was created. Once overcoming the city, it climbs upwards, its slenderness becoming a new form of materiality in this undiscovered country: the sky.
“A thread wanted to be a tower
And he wanted to sew the open wound in a museum and close the sore he mutilated his figure.
The thread wanted to become a linde and distribute its strands to caress its stone walls.
The thread wanted to go through the clouds and get lost in them. And down to sink into the dusty London soil.”
